zanooda:

That's what I think too - Draco's wand feels "friendlier" because 
Harry is undisputedly his new master. As for Bella's wand, logically 
its new master should be Ron, but I wouldn'r say that Harry is not a 
candidate for its ownership either, especially after he took all 
three wands from Draco by force. The difference is, to me, that in 
the first case Harry is an undisputed owner, and in the second case 
he is a "disputed" owner :-).

Or maybe the personality of the owner needs to match the "personality"
of the wand. Bella is an evil person. Her wand may work best for evil
people, completely ruling out Harry (and Hermione, for that matter). 


zanooda:

I'm not sure. The Elder wand worked for DD, although its previous 
owner was Grindelwald. Sure, Grindelwald doesn't seem as evil as LV, 
but still, he tortured and killed with this wand just like Bella did 
with hers. And I still don't understand how come Bella still had her 
wand after Azkaban :-).
